"FSG: Database Codeset" profile does not exist. 


This is causing the issue as XML is using a wrong codeset to generate the output.
The logfile confirms:

Caused by: java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid UTF8 encoding.





Explanation:


On : 12.0.6 version, Core Functionality


When attempting to submit and publish an FSG report in arabic, the following error occurs.
Submitting this report shows waring in completion.
Also Submitting the report in report manager seems to complete fine, but little squares are shown instead of arabic data


The profile is mandatory when the codeset is a non utf-8 one. 


Solution: Define "FSG: Database Codeset" profile, point it to the correct codeset and retest. 


1. Change the setup as following:
Go to "Application Developer" -> Profile and create a new profile with:
Name: RG_XML_CODESET
Application: Application Report Generator
User Profile Name: FSG: Database Codeset
Description: Database Codeset
Active Dates Start: 01/01/1951
All check boxes should be checked.
Save

2. Go to "System Administrator" -> Profiles -> System and query all profiles with name starting with "FSG%".
Go to the profile "FSG: Database Codeset" , enter your codeset value ISO-8859-6 at the site level and save. 


Reference:


Note 470233.1 'Generating Fsg Xml Publisher Report Ends in 'Invalid UTF8 Encoding' Error' -is relevant for the issue, shows how to check the codeset. This is most probably set incorrectly.

Value Sets

Overview of Value Sets

 Oracle Application Object Library uses values, value sets and validation tables as important components of key flexfields, descriptive flexfields, and Standard Request Submission. This section helps you understand, use and change values, value sets, and validation tables.

When you first define your flexfields, you choose how many segments you want to use and what order you want them to appear. You also choose how you want to validate each of your segments. The decisions you make affect how you define your value sets and your values.

You define your value sets first, either before or while you define your flexfield segment structures. You typically define your individual values only after your flexfield has been completely defined (and frozen and compiled). Depending on what type of value set you use, you may not need to predefine individual values at all before you can use your flexfield.

You can share value sets among segments in different flexfields, segments in different structures of the same flexfield, and even segments within the same flexfield structure. You can share value sets across key and descriptive flexfields. You can also use value sets for report parameters for your reports that use the Standard Request Submission feature.

Because the conditions you specify for your value sets determine what values you can use with them, you should plan both your values and your value sets at the same time. For example, if your values are 01, 02 instead of 1, 2, you would define the value set with Right-Justify Zero-fill set to Yes.

Remember that different flexfields may have different requirements and restrictions on the values you can use, so you should read information for your specific flexfield as part of your value planning process. For example, the Accounting Flexfield requires that you use certain types of value sets.

Value set options include the following:

• Name
• Description
• List Type
• Security Type

Format options include:

• Format Type
• Maximum Length
• Precision
• Numbers Only?
• Uppercase Only?
• Right-Justify and Zero-Fill Numbers?
• Minimum Value
• Maximum Value

Validation types include:

• Independent
• Dependent
• None
• Table
• Special
• Pair
• Translatable Independent
• Translatable Dependent

Choosing Value Formats

Since a value set is primarily a "container" for your values, you define your value set such that it can control the types of values that are allowed into the value set (whether predefined or non-validated). You can specify the format of your values:​

• Character
• Number
• Time
• Standard Date
• Standard DateTime
• Date
• DateTime
•  
• Warning: Date and DateTime will be obsolete in a future release and are provided for backward compatibility only. For new value sets, use the the format types Standard Date and Standard DateTime.
